MEETINGS | HEALTH EFFECTS INSTITUTE Health Effects Institute 2018 Annual Conference. The 2018 HEI Annual Conference was held in Chicago, Illinois, from April 29-May 1, 2018. The scientific program can be found below. Sunday morning featured a pre-conference workshop on Causal Modeling in Air Pollution Researchand Policy.
RESEARCH REPORTS
HEI’s mission is to provide credible science to support environmental regulations and other policy decisions. The results of each HEI-funded project undergo peer-review by outside scientists and the Health Review Committee. The HEI Research Reports contain the Investigator’s Report and the Review Committee’s evaluation of the study, summarized in a Commentary or short REVISIONS OF THE WHO AIR QUALITY GUIDELINES: CURRENT STATUS Revisions of the WHO Air Quality Guidelines: current status. Air pollution and health: recent advances to inform the European Green Deal. Brussels, 21-22 January, 2020 TRAFFIC-RELATED AIR POLLUTION: A CRITICAL REVIEW OF THE A Special Report of the Institute's Panel on the Health Effects of Traffic-Related Air Pollution. This report is the most comprehensive and systematic review to date of the scientific literature on emissions, exposure, and health effects from traffic-related air pollution. It includes conclusions about the populations exposed around major roads, the associations between TRAFFIC-RELATED AIR POLLUTION In many areas across the globe, populations live close to major roads and highways and are thus exposed to tailpipe emissions from vehicle traffic, non-tailpipe emissions (such as brake and tire wear), and noise that may have adverse effects on their health and well-being. This page describes HEI's research on traffic-related air pollution. UNDERSTANDING THE HEALTH EFFECTS OF AMBIENT ULTRAFINE Perspectives 3 is the third of a series produced by HEI to describe and interpret results from HEI and other research bearing on important and timely issues for a broad audience interested in environmental health.

LONG-TERM EXPOSURE TO AIR POLLUTION AND COVID-19 MORTALITY Background: One of the important public health objectives in the midst of COVID-19 epidemic, is to identify key modifiable factors that could worsen the severity of the health outcomes among individuals with COVID-19. Long-term exposure to air pollution increases the risk of respiratory and cardiometabolic diseases, which in turn increases the risk of death from COVID-19, leading to the HEI WELCOMES NEW STAFF SCIENTISTS Three staff scientists recently joined HEI, bringing a wide range of expertise to the study of the health effects of air pollution. GLOBAL BURDEN OF DISEASE The Global Burden of Disease (GBD) is the most comprehensive and systematic worldwide assessment of mortality and disease, and the risk factors associated with them, ever undertaken. The goal is to provide a comprehensive picture of what disables and kills people across countries, time, age, and sex. Overseen by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), GBD is aQUALITY ASSURANCE
PART 1. GENERAL QUALITY ASSURANCE / QUALITY CONTROL PROCEDURES. 1.1. POLICY STATEMENT.

Health Effects Institute (HEI) will host a virtual workshop on June 8-9, 2021 (1-4 PM CET) to review the status of current evidence on the health effects of air pollution in the Southeast European region andits
ANNUAL CONFERENCE
Chairs: Jeff Brook, University of Toronto, HEI Research Committee, and Barbara Hoffmann, University of Düsseldorf, HEI Research Committee. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to widespread disruptions of society, including closures of businesses, schools, and industrial activities, and there have been unprecedented restrictions on travel at allscales.
RESEARCH REPORTS
HEI’s mission is to provide credible science to support environmental regulations and other policy decisions. The results of each HEI-funded project undergo peer-review by outside scientists and the Health Review Committee. The HEI Research Reports contain the Investigator’s Report and the Review Committee’s evaluation of the study, summarized in a Commentary or short REVISIONS OF THE WHO AIR QUALITY GUIDELINES: CURRENT STATUS Revisions of the WHO Air Quality Guidelines: current status.

Pallavi Pant’s research has focused on characterization and assessment of urban air pollution, and she has published articles on air pollution in a variety of peer-reviewed journals and popularmedia.
DANIEL S. GREENBAUM
Dan Greenbaum leads HEI’s efforts to provide public and private decision makers — in the U.S., Asia, Europe, and Latin America — with high quality, impartial, relevant, and credible science about the health effects of air pollution in order to inform air quality decisions in the developed and developing world.

AIR POLLUTION ACCOUNTABILITY STUDIES: LESSONS LEARNED … AIR POLLUTION ACCOUNTABILITY STUDIES: LESSONS LEARNED AND FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES Douglas W. Dockery Loeb Research Professor of Environmental Epidemiology LONG-TERM EXPOSURE TO AIR POLLUTION AND COVID-19 MORTALITY Background: One of the important public health objectives in the midst of COVID-19 epidemic, is to identify key modifiable factors that could worsen the severity of the health outcomes among individuals with COVID-19. Long-term exposure to air pollution increases the risk of respiratory and cardiometabolic diseases, which in turn increases the risk of death from COVID-19, leading to the HEI WELCOMES NEW STAFF SCIENTISTS Three staff scientists recently joined HEI, bringing a wide range of expertise to the study of the health effects of air pollution. GLOBAL BURDEN OF DISEASE The Global Burden of Disease (GBD) is the most comprehensive and systematic worldwide assessment of mortality and disease, and the risk factors associated with them, ever undertaken. The goal is to provide a comprehensive picture of what disables and kills people across countries, time, age, and sex. Overseen by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), GBD is aQUALITY ASSURANCE
PART 1. GENERAL QUALITY ASSURANCE / QUALITY CONTROL PROCEDURES. 1.1. POLICY STATEMENT. The mission of the Health Effects Institute (HEI) is to provide high-quality, impartial, relevant scientific information on the health effects of pollutants from motor vehicles and other sourcesin the environment.

PARTICULATE MATTER
A new article published June 26 in the journal Science Advances — “Evaluating the impact of long-term exposure to fine particulate matter on mortality among the elderly” by Wu and colleagues — reports on results from an HEI-funded study of the health effects of low levels of air pollution in some 68 million Medicare recipients (led by Francesca Dominici of the Harvard T.H. Chan SchoolZORANA ANDERSEN

Contact HEI Get Directions UNDERSTANDING THE HEALTH EFFECTS OF AMBIENT ULTRAFINE Perspectives 3 is the third of a series produced by HEI to describe and interpret results from HEI and other research bearing on important and timely issues for a broad audience interested in environmental health. Perspectives 3 focuses on the health effects of ambient ultrafine particles (UFPs) and was developed under the guidance of a special HEI Review Panel. TRAFFIC-RELATED AIR POLLUTION: A CRITICAL REVIEW OF THE A Special Report of the Institute's Panel on the Health Effects of Traffic-Related Air Pollution. This report is the most comprehensive and systematic review to date of the scientific literature on emissions, exposure, and health effects from traffic-related air pollution. It includes conclusions about the populations exposed around major roads, the associations between BURDEN OF DISEASE ATTRIBUTABLE TO COAL-BURNING AND OTHER Special Report 20, Burden of Disease Attributable to Coal-Burning and Other Major Sources of Air Pollution in China, provides the first comprehensive assessment of the current and predicted burdens of disease attributable to coal-burning and other major sources of particulate matter air pollution (PM2.5) in China at the national andprovincial levels.
